Riding GTA is Easy!

To use the extensive network of GTA transportation services, you need to know only three things – where you are, where you are going, and what time you need to be there.

Questions about GTA routes, schedules and fares can be directed to GTA Customer Service at 336-335-6499 from 6 am to 8 pm Mondays through Fridays and 9 am to 7 pm on Saturdays and Sundays.

Passengers may board or exit a GTA bus at any clearly marked GTA stop or shelter and at the J. Douglas Galyon Depot, 236-C E. Washington St. in downtown Greensboro.

GTA service is called "pay enter." As you board the bus, drop exact cash fare ($1.50) into the farebox or swipe your pass or transfer through the farebox. As you take your seat, please leave the front seats for seniors or passengers with disabilities. Occupy only one seat, and place purses, packages and other personal items safely at your feet within your seat area.

To signal the bus to stop at a GTA bus stop or shelter, pull down on the cord located directly over the window, or push the horizontal strip or button. Signal for the vehicle to stop as you approach your desired shelter or stop. If you are uncertain about your stop location, ask your operator. He or she will assist you.

Service Animal Policy

The Greensboro Transit Agency does not discriminate against individuals with disabilities. GTA is committed to employing reasonable measures to ensure that all residents of Greensboro may enjoy public transportation. In furtherance of this commitment, GTA desires to promulgate the following policy regulating the use of service animals on fixed-route buses, paratransit vehicles and all other transportation facilities.

A service animal means any guide dog, signal dog, or other animal individually trained to work or perform tasks for an individual with a disability, including, but not limited to, guiding individuals with impaired vision, alerting individuals with impaired hearing to intruders or sounds, providing minimal protection or rescue work, pulling a wheelchair, or fetching dropped items. If any animal meets this definition then it is considered a service animal irrespective of whether the animal has been licensed or certified by a state or local government.

Pets are prohibited on all GTA fixed-route buses, paratransit vehicles and transportation facilities. When a patron accompanied by an animal attempts to access a GTA fixed-route bus, paratransit vehicle or transportation facility a GTA operator or employee may ask the patron if the animal is a service animal required because of a disability. If the patron indicates that the animal is a service animal required because of a disability then the GTA operator must permit the animal to access the fixed-route bus, paratransit vehicle or transportation facility. If the patron indicates that the animal is not a service animal required because of a disability then the GTA operator or employee must prohibit the animal from entering upon any fixed-route bus, paratransit vehicle or transportation facility. A GTA operator or employee may not insist that a patron provides proof that their animal is a service animal.

A disabled patron employing a service animal must clean and dispose of all animal waste, must provide food and care for the animal as needed, make sure that the animal is in good health and ensure that the animal is controlled by a leash or bridle at all times. A GTA operator or employee may exclude or remove any service animal if the service animal displays disruptive, vicious or aggressive behavior or constitutes a direct threat to the health or safety of others. In the alternative, a GTA operator may require any disabled patron who does not comply with this policy to disembark the fixed-route bus, paratransit vehicle or transportation facility, and GTA shall transport the patron and their service animal to their destination separately.
